Did I switch off the oven? Instead of heading back home to check, simply take a look at the app. You will see the status of your appliances straight away with immediate access to important functionalities, whether at home or on the go.


Be aware of all that’s important

Oh, the fridge door has been left open? When do I need to descale the coffee machine? Important notifications and reminders regarding maintenance and care will be sent to you automatically. And even if things don’t go to plan: Using remote diagnostics our customer service will help you out with resolving the issue. You can also simply check the manual which is conveniently stored in the app.


Voice-control your appliances via Amazon Alexa or Google Home

Whether it’s making coffee, preheating the oven, or starting the washing machine: Voice your command and Google Assistant or Amazon Alexa will take care of the rest. What’s more, you can use predefined or individual routines for recurring tasks, like having your coffee made at the same time each working day.

 
Finding the best programme and other little helpers

Dishwasher, dryer, or oven – depending on the appliance and task at hand, the app will recommend the right programme with the ideal settings, whether it’s a pile of dirty dishes, a load of washing, or the cheesecake recipe for your next family reunion. And with Coffee Playlist you can even fulfil your guests’ coffee needs to match that cheesecake.

Never run out on dishwasher tabs, hood filters, or other consumables

Home Connect gives you access to features that track your supply so you will never have to think about it again. Even better, connect to Amazon Alexa and its smart reordering service for your dishwasher tabs so they are reordered on demand before you run out.


Control your home with your smartwatch

Monitor and manage your appliances with your Wear OS by Google.

Ratings and reviews

All the functions are there, you can even set the time you want the program to finish from any location. However, setting the finish time is clunky - the ability to enter the time manually would help a lot and add a star to my rating! Anothet star is deducted because if you make a mistake or change your mind when using the Program Assistant, you are brought all the way back to the first screen and you have to select everything all over again. Too bad really, as the app is actually pretty decent.

After the update it doesn't work any more. It says disconnected - but doesn't tell you how to reconnect. It says you have messages, but not how to get rid of them. It says you can do this and that and the other if you buy more and more and that's all you get, bland, useless intrusive advertising. Before, I was getting notified when it finished and I could quickly get overviews and the status. Now I just get useless marketing. Can I change settings? Nope. Apparently not if I am disconnected.

I couldn't find a way to report an issue or give feedback in the app (another useful feature that is missing) therefore I am writing it here. The app cannot download applience instructions anymore thus the button "Instructions for use" doesn't work anymore. I have got two Bosch appliences connected. A washing machine and a dryer. The issue applies to both.
